A Friend I'm Need,

Alfred Sanderson. Esq, editor
of the Western Broker. a popular
trade paper at Chicago. in his last
issue makes the following compli-
mentary mention of a physician of
this city:
ct is an old saying that friend
in need is a friend indeed, and one
is apt to appreciate friend when
he turns up at an opportune mo-
mcnt. During the recent visit Of
the editor of the Western B,oker to
Louisville he was taken i'll with a
relapse of nervous prostration,
from which he had been suffering
for several months, and which
threatened. for the time, serious
consequences. In the emergency
we woke from his slumbers Dr..
VIM. Hume Harris, who was a
guest in the same hotel, who gave
immediate relief, although similar
attacks have puzzled some emf
nent doctors. and the symptoms
have not since returned. 1t is
hardly in our sphere to advertise
medical men, but as this gentle
man is just commencing the prac-
tice of medicine in Louisville we
feel ourselves called upon. under
the circumstances, to introduce
him to any of our friends in that
city who may be troubled with
nervous affections. "-CoW1e, Jour-
nal.
DR.. Harris was for several years
a resident of this city, and only To-
Gated in Louisville last fall.

Franklin county has appropria.
ted money enough for turnpikes
to almost build railroad to
Georgetown, and yet some of
those influential fellows, for whose
special benefit some Of the turn
pixies were built, refuse to assist
their neIghbors, who were taxed
to build their turnpikes, in getting
a weebit of railroad to haul
their tobacco, and corn, and hogs,
and cattle, and eggs, and maple
sugar to market for something
less than half their value. Now is
that far and squar?"
What about that free delivery
business from the Post-office? is
there a hitch? Three or four or
five or six months is long time to

Washington Letter.

"You were speaking of Stephen
Field as a grave and sedate justice,
now that he is full of years and
honor, and occupies a seat in one
of the greatest judicial bodies in
the world" said another of the
party, but | remember him when
he was as gay and rollicking a lad
as the best of us. When the
mining camp at what is now
Nevada City was first organized,
young lawyer Field was elected a
justice of the peace. Probably
the toughest member of the new
camp was noted desperate, Jack
Reynolds by name. One day
Reynolds was arrested on charge
of horse stealing. 1t was trial
by jury. with Justice Field presid-
ing. The evidence was not strong
enough to convict, but as every
body was anxious to get rid of
Reynolds the verdict was: we
find the prisoner at the bar not
guilty, but if he is wise he will
leave the camp in thirty minutes.
The verdict amused the young
justice immensely. but he repeated
it to Reynolds with due solemnity.
Reynolds. whose sense of the ridic-
ulous was quite as keen as that of
the jury, calmly replied, as he
gave his trousers an extra hitch:
/ Gents, if the mule don't buck,
I'll be out in five. >"

Dry Bones.

There is something fearful in
the streets OF Frankfort. Such
hills and hollows-such mud holes
and Jagged edges, it makes the
heart sick and the head swim to
compass their heights and depths
There are more than forty two
places where you can hide a pig
of eleven months growth in the
middle Of the street, and nobody
notice any undulation in the sur
face. Only few days ago a fel-
low got So for playing circus
across one of these pits of
destruction, and ninety.nine
more daily dance about their
edges, hoping to break leg, or
disjoint an arm, or confuse mid
RIB, and draw pension from the
city. Is there no balm in Gilead?
Is there no physician there?
What may be said of the streets
is praise Tor the paVementS OF
Frankfort. Eleven hundred ma.
pie trees have yearly contract to
inhict injury and gross damage on
these pavements. The camels Of
Egypt and Abysinia haven't half

minutes walk about town. Don't
hurt the naples, but smooth their
roots ard Compose the uprooted
sidewalks. Level out the holes
SO the tiny No. IS slipper won't
slush in the water of the last rain,
and make the girls swallow the
gum they are chewing.
Rumor has it the county court
has a scheme to publish report of
the expenditures for several years
back from the county levy, and Of
the financial condition. 1t is eX-
pected to be put in print as soon
as those who have drawn the money
will report their names. and how
much each got. 1t may take sew
eral years to get in all the re-
turns, and meanwhile most Citi-
zens pass to the home beyond
the river" but the court hopes
Ito get there all the same. If
any names or amounts are omit
ted, it will make little difference in
the balance sheet-the unknown
quantity can be corralled under
the head of missing election re-

name smells as well.

county expenditures would look
